Detailshi.
i needed to reinstall grub on MBR, and decided to use the latest 2009.02 live cd for that. and instead of running the live cd, mount partition, bind /proc /dev/ etc ..., i look in the tools menu of grub and houray , find what i needed ! thank you arch developpers. one minor issue is that at some point the display seems to become corrupted. the colors are lost, vertical dotted lines appears. one can guess the text under that, but that's hard. look at the attached picture how to reproduce ? go in tools ... > Reinstall Grub in MBR and run that command (with or without modifying the partition to be used with e command) once the command is run the display is corrupted. |
This task depends upon
grub_corrupted_display.jpg
grub is reinstalled on the MBR and it works perfectly
This is unrelated with archiso, there is nothing to do with it.
Only god knows what is the origin of the grub-0.97-graphics.patch used in grub-gfx. I doubt that can be done here something with it.
